Stay, stay awake Open your eyes and dream with me And you know we We don't need the light You and I like fireflies We do better in the night In a perfect world my mind would swirl With ways to bring it down I need it to hurt, need it to burn, need it to burn Once we had a dream We once had a dream This dream is all that I can see All that I can think about And now I keep it close to me Do you ever think? Do you ever think About the things that could have been? Do you ever dream like I do? Do you keep it close to you? Do you keep it close to you? I, I don't mind being in the shade If I'm in the shadow of Something big and beautiful And leaves brown and dry Doesn't mean time's running out Doesn't mean the tree will die In a perfect world my mind would swirl With ways to bring it down I need it to hurt, need it to burn, need it to burn Once we had a dream We once had a dream This dream is all that I can see All that I can think about And now I keep it close to me Do you ever think? Do you ever think About the things that could have been? Do you ever dream like I do? Do you keep it close to you? Do you keep it close to you? Once we had a dream We once had a dream This dream is all that I can see All that I can think about And now I keep it close to me Do you ever think? Do you ever think About the things that could have been? Do you ever dream like I do? Do you keep it close to you? Do you keep it close to you? Do you keep it close to you?
